Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers. as well
as relieving the burden of home manu-
features Especially is this the case with
Green's August F20acer and Boschee's Ger
man Syrup, as the reduction of thirty six
cents per dozen, has been added to in
crease the size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the 20 cent size. The
august Fleaoer for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicines in the
world The advantage of increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted, in every town
and village in civilized countries. Same

A Dime Museum.

1t has been suggested that our State

and who also takes great pleasure in ex-
planning TO visitors the many curiosities
on exhibition-be made the treasurer of
the institution, and that one half the pro
cecds to go toward compromising Mr..
Shafer for his trouble and time taken
from his other duties. and that one-half
of the proceeds 90 toward the erection of
suitable building. Some days Mr..
Skaters entire time is taken up with visi-
tors to the museum. and in consequence
he is kept at his desk with the official du-
ties of his office until late hours at night.
Visitors are becoming more frequent
and with the approach Of the excur

but just and proper that the attendant
should be compensated for his trouble.

A very amusing mistake recently oc-
cured in one of the public schools. The
reading class was up, and bright little
fellow was reading away with decided
vim. The teacher was listening with adj
miration. but presently was startled when
she heard: And he garnished his teeth
with rage. What's that? What did you
sayY" she quickly asked. The answer
came in childlike simplicity: He gar
nished his teeth with rage. The teacher
could not refrain from laughing outright
when she saw how her pupil had distorted
the sentence. He CRASHED his teeth

City Dust VS.. Spring Medicines.

The Medical Record, an accepted au-
thority in sanitary matters as well as medi-
cal truths, says that American catarrhs
are largely due TO the dust driven into the
faces of city people, and that the clouds
of unsterilized earth thus penetrating the
lungs help to produce the death rate of
this period, There can be no doubt that,
as he Record says, lit is not so much

The Fall or Horse.

On Tuesday last Mr.. Herman Uega-

the purchase of horse, expecting to get
the animal and bring it home with them.
While passing across the bridge over
large ditch passing train of cars frigh-
tened their horse and he backed off the
bridge, there being no railing or pro-
lection whatever. The horse fell square
upon the chest of Mrs. Hegamaster, and
having been freshly shod the day before
struck her in the head with one of the
corks OF the forefoot fracturing the
skull. This of itself was sufficient to
produce death. Mrs. Hegama4ter only
lived about fifteen minutes.
Mr.. Hegamaster was more fortunate
in the fall, not being struck by thehorse,
yet he was severely bruised and scratch
ed in the frightful fall. The people of
Dunbridge done everything in their
